Prediction values for peak expiratory flow rates - much ado about something!
South African Respiratory Journal · Volume 21, Issue 4 (2015) · pp. 89
Abstract
<jats:p><p>Prediction values for spirometric indices utilize values derived from Caucasian populations in resource rich settings. Traditionally these are discounted when applied to non-Caucasian populations. It is encouraging to acknowledge the paper by Nokubulwa et al on prediction values for peak expiratory flow rates (PEF) in a Ugandan population (1).</p></jats:p>
